We got out to the owls late. Walter and Willa were looking for Nora and peeping a lot.
As it got darker, Walter (on the left) started turning into a Yeti.
The Big Dip!

I stopped and took this large Bullsnake off the road while I was riding this afternoon.

There’s a second owlet who was bopping around to the beat, but it wouldn’t show its face.

Osric Owl would not open his eyes for me at first. He finally woke with a hoot and gave me a “Stupid Paparazzo! And spell my name right!” look.
Nora Owl was looking sleepy also. That’s an indication the owlets might have hatched.

The moon was smiling tonight after eclipsing the sun yesterday.

Sunset in Confrot, TX, last night.
Red sky at morning. High wind warning
That saying is true for today. We still have high winds, as I type.
The irrigation ditch is dry.
A funny thing happened on the way to the blogosphere. Brad and I were discussing birds wishing paparazzi get struck by lightning. I noticed that all the irrigation ditches have had no water in them in the past few days, even though the river is running higher. The birds’ wishes missed the paparazzi and zapped the irrigation pumps instead. I got a text from the Mayorodomo that the irrigation pumps were down due to being struck by lightning.
Doesn’t take long to get dry, cracked earth in a dry and windy environment.
Nora Owl was secure in her nest, but we did not see Orsic Owl this afternoon.
Rough water on the Rio Grande
Puddle ducks blown up against the bank by the high winds.
